This book is a deep dive into one of the most exciting and powerful elements of chess: giving up material to gain a decisive advantage.

  • Think several moves ahead: These puzzles aren't just about the first move; they are about understanding the forced sequence that follows, a skill that is crucial for any player who wants to improve.

"Sacrifices: Aldozatok: Oferoj II" is an essential resource for ambitious players who want to add a new dimension to their game. It's a key to unlocking a more dynamic, creative, and ultimately, more powerful style of play.
